Only 16 Duelists remain! This Match features two World Championship Duelists! We’ve got Adrian Shakir, from Colorado Springs, CO, playing Mekk-Knight Invoked. His opponent is Vincent Paglia, from Las Vegas, NV, playing True Draco. It’s time to Duel!
We’re now in the Top 16! Nicholas Petzold from Austin, Texas ended the Swiss Rounds in 11th place with a 8-2 record. He has an interesting Deck that centers around Metalfoes but also contains Purple Poison Magician and Astrograph Sorcerer, plus enough True Draco Spells and Traps to support Master Peace, the True Dracoslaying King! He’s made it to Top 16 and is facing off against Jerald Acosta from New Jersey, who ended Swiss in 6th place with a record of 9-1 using a Pendulum Magician Deck. Only one of these players will move on to the Top 8. It’s time to Duel!
